bleepingcomputer.com Unknown 2025-09-19 09:10:00

OpenAI has rolled out a big update to ChatGPT Search, which is an AI-powered search feature, similar to Google AI Mode. After a recent update, ChatGPT Search is more accurate and reliable. You'll also notice that it's more useful than before because it accurately summarises the links, and allows you to follow back. OpenAI says GPT Search now makes fewer hallucinations, improving answer quality. In addition, search is better at detecting shopping intent, showing products when you want them and

Russia’s Space Chief Touts ‘Rapid’ Development of Starlink Rival

gizmodo.com Ellyn Lapointe 2025-09-20 22:00:47

With more than 6 million active users, SpaceX’s Starlink has become the world’s leading provider of high-speed satellite internet. That prominence has sparked some rivalry, and not least with other world powers—including Russia. In a televised interview on Wednesday, the head of Russia’s Roscosmos space agency said it is pushing full steam ahead on an alternative to Starlink, Reuters reported. Dmitry Bakanov said that Roscosmos has partnered with Bureau 1440, a Russian aerospace company, to dev

Linking to text fragments with a bookmarklet One of my favourite features added to web browsers in the last few years is text fragments. Text fragments allow you to link directly to specific text on a web page, and some browsers will highlight the linked text – for example, by scrolling to it, or adding a coloured highlight. This is useful if I’m linking to a long page that doesn’t have linkable headings – I want it to be easy for readers to find the part of the page I was looking for. Here’s

Cloudflare CEO’s ‘Frighteningly Likely’ Forecast for How AI Will Ruin the Internet

Cloudflare CEO Matthew Prince is the latest tech executive to ring the warning bells for a near-term dystopian AI scenario. Speaking to WIRED’s Big Interview Podcast on Tuesday, Prince said that he thinks the days of search engines being “the dominant interface of the web” are already long gone. “Now, if you run a search, it gives you back an answer at the top of the page.

WIRED Roundup: How Charlie Kirk Changed Conservative Media

Zoë Schiffer: So where does that leave traditional right-wing media, like Fox News, for example? Is this a replacement of that or is it working in tandem? Jake Lahut: I think it's more in tandem. Fox's programming was dominated by Kirk's assassination last night. I think that for a lot of the mainstay Fox personalities, people like Charlie Kirk, and I guess in the Turning Point USA broader cinematic universe, these younger figures are really important, actually, for I think a lot of the more es

Windows 10 was released on July 29th 2015, and D3D12 has been with us ever since. While it’s true that this is the longest we’ve gone between major D3D version updates, it’s also not fair to say that the API has remained static.
